<small><font face="sans-serif">Hi Niels, hi Donald<br>
<br>
There appears to be some subtle differences between gnome and kde
desktops when removing pulseaudio.<br>
<br>
On fc12 x86_64 with KDE 4.4.x and Planet CCRMA core packages installed
- a simple remove all packages except pulseaudio-libs and
pulseaudio-libs-glib2 was sufficient.<br>
<br>
On restarting KDE, KDE automatically picked-up that the pulseaudio
sound server is unavailable and asks whether the pulseaudio
configuration should be permanently removed - the answer is a clear yes!<br>
<br>
The Planet CCRMA core app package takes care of the RT configuration.<br>
